On Ukraine

There has been a lot of bad happening thus far in 2022. 

With all of the unrest and the atrocious acts in the news, it’s easy to get overwhelmed and feel hopeless, paralyzed.

I previously learned this the hard way.

It’s why I changed job roles in 2021.

I couldn’t do anything about my mom dying.

I couldn’t do anything to end the occupation in Ottawa.

I can’t do anything about what has happened in the Ukraine.

Yet.

It’s at times like this where I turn my focus to what is in my sphere.

In time, there very well may be a way to help, such as donating relief funds.

That is when I will be able to do something about this crisis that is half a world away.

For now, I am focusing on chores and decluttering.

Because it’s all I can do.
